Not Always a House is A Home

Not Always a House is a Home Anywhere you go, you will always see one thing. You may see some, hundreds, or thousands, but there will always be at least one; a house. However, when you see a house on the outside, it may not be a home on the inside. Sometimes instead of containing laughter, love, and kindness, it is filled with hate, guilt, and tears. What is on the outside, does not always appear on the inside. Instead of having a loving, supportive family, all you have is you. You must give yourself the confidence and stability to get back up when you fall down, only YOU. Instead of a safe place for you to be yourself in, it is a place filled with constant fear of the people surrounding you, at school, and in your HOUSE. A home is more than just four walls and a roof, but so is a house. We are all so blind that we do not see what is going on behind the curtains. We do not even realize that not everyone has what we think everyone should have, a HOME. WE need to make a change. WE need to help those in need. WE need to put a hand up and look out for one another. Only then, can we achieve the impossible and make it possible for YOU!
